MOB RULES "the donor "

HARDCORE. On their debut full-length, the UK's MOB RULES has concocted one of the most ambitious and cohesive re-articulations of power-violence in recent memory. While they don't abandon the genre's essential traits - blistering fast parts, trippy sludge breakdowns and harsh, hateful vocals - they render them exponentially more powerful by adding some new spices to the stew, namely an expansive sense of composition that recalls KINJG CRIMSON at their heaviest moments. From a 37sec. ripper to a 7min. epic jam that wastes anything on "the process of weeding out",
